    For those who use auto watering how do you keep the pH right?

    I pH my water before every time I water and even if I do the nutrient water one day when it's time to use it again in a couple days I always have to add more pH down. if i wanna do an auto watering system like was mentioned in the newsletter how do I manage this? it seems like not much saved time if I have to pH the water before the timer goes off.

    I using an iws system you have keep checking ph as it rises what i do is ph 5.6 at water change then let it drift to 6.4 then drop it back down to 5.6 it varies how much it changes but your plants absorb diffrent nutes at diffrent ph so you doing them a favour also you dont want to be mixing more nutes than you need each time mate

            I grow with the autopot system. I use the 12 gal rez and have a Blue Lab PH controller to keep the PH in range. All the nutes go in the rez at one time. The stage of growth determines how often I add nutes/water to the rez. I don't worry about the PH cause of the controller.

              Investing in a new cryptocurrency I found in a drug growing website is just the business opportunity I've been looking for! Something I can work into a pyramid scheme.
              What a stroke of luck!

                How do you figure. A troll that joined a year and a half ago and her first post is this.

                Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far.
                Like a ninja cat. Hiding in the shadows, waiting for the right moment to throw a shuriken at your throat. And dropping a doo-doo in the hole. It's the ninja cat version of a drill instructors' 'I will rip off your head and shit down your neck!' cliche. Except ninja cats really do it.
